45. A Couple’s Journey into Family Constellation Work with John Palairet & Jo Amrein-Palairet

Constellations and all that...

In this heartfelt conversation, Tracy Cartwright is joined by John and Jo Amrein-Palairet to explore their shared journey into Family Constellation work. Jo reflects on the grief of losing her mother, the challenges of parenting a daughter with a disability, and how Constellations opened a path of healing, acceptance, and connection. John shares his own subtle yet powerful shifts — from the carpenter’s workshop into the Constellation field — and how the work has deepened his perspective on relationships, ancestry, and life itself.

Together, John and Jo talk about navigating nearly three decades of marriage, creating retreats focused on relationships and family balance, and what it means to walk the path of healing as a couple. From layers of grief to the flow of love, their story is living proof of the transformative power of this work — not just for individuals, but for generations to come.

✨ In this conversation, they talk about:

• The essence of Family Constellations and how hidden patterns shape our lives
• The role of love as a central healing force in systemic work
• Grief, loss, and finding connection with parents and ancestors
• Parenting, disability, and navigating family systems with compassion
• The importance of witnessing and representing in the constellation field
• Relationships as a living practice — and how they weave this work into retreats
• Their hopes for bringing more men into the work, and passing healing on to future generations
